Die Casting Designing
Types of Metal Casting Process
Metal casting process begins by creating a mold, which is the ' shape of the part we need. The mold is made from a refractory material, for example, sand. The metal is heated in an oven until it melts, and the molten metal is poured into the mould cavity. The liquid takes the shape of [...]Tolerance Analysis for the Molding of Kitchen Appliance Surfaces Design and Modification
This is to illustrate how to use tolerance analysis as a tool to ensure that a kitchen appliance molding design meets its mass production requirements and customer expectations for component assembly, product appearance, and product performance. The Benefits of Tolerance Analysis Before mass production Verifies a design will achieve the desired level of quality Ensures [...]REDUCING MANUFACTURING LEAD TIME FOR DIE CASTING
We understand that there are many important factors design engineers consider every day as they work on a new project. Two of those factors that are becoming even more critical are quick turn around times and getting to the marketplace before your competition. Involving Suzubin engineers early in the design process is an important step […]

DESIGN TIPS FOR DIE CASTING
At Suzubin Household Appliance Enterprise we are often asked what tips we have that can improve a part design. I wanted to share with you some of the more common design tips that we recommend for die casting. Die casting can be done in various metals and the parts that are created differ widely. […]
Key Questions to Ask When Sourcing the Best Die Caster for Your Project
After months of research, developing a die casting design concept and validating it, you’re ready to move into the next phase of the project: selecting a die caster to turn the concept into a reality. Unless you have an existing relationship with a reputable die casting supplier that you’ve established, finding the best metal die […]
Magnesium Die Casting is Expensive?
The reality is, die casting metal materials are priced and purchased by the pound. In engineered part designs, their material content is based on the volumes actually used in the part. When objective material cost evaluations are based on “equal volume” comparisons, magnesium die casting becomes cost-competitive due to its low density, excellent strength, stiffness and energy […]
Tactics for Optimal Product Design for Die Casting
Developing an optimum product design for die casting is similar, in most respects, for any material/process combination. In capitalizing on today’s advanced die casting processes, however, specific attributes of die casting alloys and the die casting process offer opportunities for distinct product advantages and cost reductions that require somewhat different tactics. These should be applied when a totally new […]
